Again death has visited our community; Mrs. Geo. Hann, who has been a sufferer for years, was released from pain at two o’clock Tuesday morning. Her death was peaceful, for “she knew in whom she believed, and the dark river was only a step into glory.”

The funeral services were held in the M. E. church, conducted by the pastor, Rev. Gardner, and many of the large crowd which were in attendance felt that they too could share in the sorrow, for was she not one of our beloved, and the wife of our faithful Sunday school superintendent. The family have the sympathy of hosts of friends.
